Liam didn’t bother with subtlety as he said bluntly, “Miss Woland, I’ll need your fingerprints. Please cooperate with me.”

Immediately, Alice knew that this person was here to have her fingerprints compared with the ones dusted off the handcuffs.

Seven years ago, in order to escape, she had handcuffed that man to the bed. She also clearly remembered that when she pretended to be unconscious seven years ago, someone slipped into her room to duplicate her fingerprints, proving that that man was already suspicious of her at that time.

However, it was clear that her prints didn’t match. Otherwise, that man would have found her a long time ago.

But why does he want my fingerprints again seven years later? She wondered.

In the room, Archie and Apollo grimaced slightly when they heard Liam’s words at the door.

What was going on here? This person was being too arrogant by coming unannounced and demanding her fingerprints, wasn’t he? So who the hell was he?

“You want my fingerprints? Who are you? Why should I give my prints to you?” Despite her shock, she kept ironclad control over her facial expressions.

“You don’t have to know who I am, Miss Woland. My task is to obtain your fingerprints, so please cooperate with me.”

The straightforward man had never beaten about the bush in his work; he didn’t want to, nor was he capable of weaving up a complicated excuse to fool others. So, he always used the direct approach when dealing with his targets.

Meanwhile, Archie’s temper flared up by his terrible bedside manner. Who the f*ck is this guy? Is he here to ask for a beating?

At first, Apollo frowned, then he broke into a smirk. His mother was merely acting like a meek, docile kitten. So what? Did these people really think that she was a weak pushover?

Caleb, who had just stepped out of the elevator, felt a shiver running down his spine when he heard what Liam said, and he almost stumbled. Damn, the way Liam does anything is still as direct as ever.
